Just picked this one up today and it's a doozy. Rim-to-rim struck through string with some of the string fibers still attached by the 5 and TRUST. Really difficult to get a single full-coin photo that does any justice to how nifty this thing looks on an SMS coin, and a 66 to boot.

What an outstanding strikethrough! It's really cool when you can see the structure of the original object. Amazing that the minting process involves so much force that it can drive a string into a metal coin face.
